Shailja Patel & The New Music of Revolutions to Come

This afternoon, on the 5 o'clock hour, we are joined by poet, playwright, Shailja Patel, for a discussion of her most recent book, Migritude.

 "A vibrant, gendered, wordsmith's voice, speaking Africa, Asia, the metropole, history, the present - the world, Shailja Patel is that rare thing - an activist poet in prose and verse." ~ Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak

 "A work of unwavering moral conscience, a battle cry for justice, expressed through a poetic talent that desreves a global audience." ~ Dennis Brutus

 Also this afternoon, new music from the Matthew Shipp Trio, Roscoe Mitchell with Craig Taborn, and William Parker.
